POD! On YIMBY Pod this week, Martin and I talk about Andy Burnham’s first week and the consequences for abundance issues we care about. And then we speak to Michael Dnes about his bold plan to build a new tunnel under the Peak District using dynamite. Listen here, or wherever you get your pods!

Hello! It’s time for Odds and Ends, your semi-regular round-up of the most interesting links I’ve seen recently, plus some shorter takes.

This time, I’m featuring:

• I reveal some very exciting news from my household

• My contribution to The Odyssey discourse

• The best attempt yet at making wave energy happen

• A mad alternative to air conditioning being taken inexplicably seriously

• Why Andy Burnham should still prioritise growth

• And how to make digging up roads less annoying

Now let’s get started!
